Geocache Description:


I'm a huge Elvis Presley fan, have been ever since I was a little girl.  When I was thinking of putting a series of 50 caches together, it came to mind to use Elvis Presley song titles for the cache names.  As you're searching for each cache, try to sing the song it's named for, I bet you'll know most of them:-)

I had planned on placing all 50 of them around Lohi Lake but ran out of room so had to continue on another road after placing as many as I could around that lake. Please be careful and pull off to the side of the road as far as possible and be cautious when getting out of your vehicle. All caches will be just a few meters from the road and you will be looking for camoed containers...vial shaped and square or round Lock n' Lock. You will also notice that in one area I didn't hide any caches for over a km, due to many cottages near the road.  I hope you enjoy this series as much as I enjoyed putting it together!!! (Thanks to Flashattimmies for helping me place all the caches!)

Please be advised that if you're using your smart phone as your gps, there will be some areas where there is no reception. If you're using a GPS itself, then you'll be fine.

#35...."Separate Ways"...Presley recorded "Separate Ways", written by Red West and Richard Mainegra, on March 27, 1972, and the country song "Always On My Mind" on March 29. They were released together as a single on October 31, 1972. It reached gold status in the US for sales of over half a million copies. It was listed as a double sided hit reaching #16 on Billboard magazine's Hot Country Singles chart in November 1972. In the UK "Always On My Mind" was the hit song and "Separate Ways" was the b-side.
